Answer:

C. Only statements #1 & #3 are true.

Explanation:

A plane is made up of various number of points or line that extend till infinity on a flat surface. It can be named by with 3 non-collinear points that lie on the plane or by a letter in the plane (e.g plane A).

All plane shape are derived by their required dimensions in a plane. So that they can all be expressed on a flat surface i.e in 2 dimensions only.

Thus from the given question, the appropriate option that are statements that defines a plane accurately is C. i.e only statements #1 & #3 are true.
